Mayor Attends Conference

Jackson Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba will discuss how Jackson met the challenges of the pandemic at the What Works 2022 conference.  The city of Jackson announced yesterday:


Considering Jackson is often a laughingstock, it is nice to see other cities turning to the Bold New City for inspiration.

What a bunch of woke losers.

It really has nothing to do with Jackson’s “success” during the lockdowns.

The official narrative of both the WEF/plandemic and Soros/BLM, requires a charlatan to parade on a speaking tour. Antard fulfills both roles. His accomplishments include being named after an assassinated African communist and being elected mayor by a decaying city occupied by poorly educated and impoverished beneficiaries of government handouts.

This is the future they want for all of us.

They addressed it by losing almost every business in downtown. Covid was the straw that broke downtowns back. It’s sad to me, I’m a fan and supporter, but it’s a ghost town. Marriott, gone. Parlor Market, gone. Anybody office job that can possibly be done at home, gone. You get to go to a conference and brag about that?

This is a joke, right??

Seriously, what worked in Jackson? Only thing that seems to be functioning is Lumumba's mouth.

It's all one big cool kid club. It doesn't matter how poorly you govern, what the outcomes are, etc. As long as you use the right buzz phrases and word salads in speeches, you will be rewarded. What a joke.

Jackson has only met the challenges of increasing crime and electing clowns.

Meanwhile back in Jacktown the garbage won't get picked up and it sounds like you are in Iraq with all the shootings going on. Nothing to see here. Let's attend a conference on the taxpayers dime to spout off nonsense

Is this the conference that will be held in Ireland? If so, the city is flushing more money down the drain. That is okay, because we have no really pending issues except water, sewer, waste pick up, crime, street in total disrepair, deserted and dilapidated housing, lack of any responsible,leadership, etc.

When you think about it these events are all the Mayor has left. He has no credibility in Jackson or in Mississippi. So, he goes far away and yammers his pablum to unsuspecting fools.

Remain calm ! all is well .
its all online so Chock may not get a fancy trip on the city's dime.

This is a multi-day seminar at Kenyon College in Ohio for radical leftist bureaucrats with many programs offered such as:

"Integrating Emotional Intelligence & Growth Mindset to Create Equity, Empower, Build Self-Efficacy, and Grow Intelligence"

They really knew how to bait a hook for our Lil Choke, didn't they? Jackson's fake mayor would rather such worthless seminars to hype his woke evangelism than the adult, practical dedication of making Jackson work as a city, not a commie gulag.

Stuff this punk and hire Aaron Banks to do the work of mayor!

He's an expert on water, sewer and public safety.

That conference of liberal attendees ought to take a field trip to Jacktown to see for themselves how much of Chokwad's policies are working. They won't even know that they are in America. What a fucking joke!!!

The conference is being held in Canada, not Ireland.

Can’t you racists stop hating for just one second and acknowledge that Mayor Lumumba earned these invitations through his leadership to the people who elected him TWICE!?

Good - we get him out of town again. Means he can't screw up as much as he does when he is here. And if these folks think he has answers on how to run a city, bless their hearts! They need much more than listening to him flap his gumbs as he pats himself on the back

Googled it - What Works 2022 - Being held in Banff Canada. The only thing that will be accomplished here is Ladumba's gums will get a solid workout.

Someone needs to start a GoFundMe to pay for a ticket to confront Chuck with the reality of his shitshow of an administration during the Q&A

Thanks, I need a laugh today.

Imagine if some aspiring non-woke film maker would splice scenes all of his useless bragging at these speaking events, with actual footage of the horrors of Chuck's city.

Of course, the MSM would deem that video racist.

All the while further allowing the minorities in Jackson to drown in crime and filth by refusing to acknowledge facts.

Its so sad.

Obviously, no one does their homework anymore. One look at Jackson should disqualify Choke from any award or speaking engagement.

What Works? Are you kidding? In Jackson??? These people must be living in a dreamland because the water, sewer, streets and employees ain’t workin right.

It makes me feel better knowing we are not really at the bottom of every list. Imagine how bad it must be in some other areas if they have to get chicken choker to make speeches.

What I like most is the title "Truth + Trust" - neither of which seem to be at the forefront of this "leader's" "leadership"...

I agree that Lumumba II should have to answer the question: “What works in Jackson?”

Maybe 3:38 can give us some examples, five years into this mayor’s reign, of what is actually working in the City of Jackson.

I wonder if he’ll be bragging about how Jackson, MS is rated as the second worst city in the US to live in?

I'm so glad that nature of wisdom isn't to be horded but rather to be shared for the benefit of all mankind.

Chok is gonna tell them folks how he run a city. Into the ground.

That YouTube video! Holy sh!t what a load of buzzword salad. These people have no idea how phony this cat is. No one, and I mean no one in Jackson, MS takes this guy serious. People laugh and mock him for him trying to be a little dictator. He is 100% using his position to posture for some National level of wokeness and some social Justice warrior position while destroying the city of Jackson with inaction.

I am glad the city has sufficient funds to send “his honor” and his entourage to Banff luxury resort for a few days. Hopefully all of the bills are paid up to date.

What are the worst cities in America?

While one’s ideal location to live is subjective and varies widely based on personal preference, some cities are considered the worst to live in.

24/7 Wall Street used 25 measures to create an index determining which cities are the worst cities to live in. Each of the measures fell into one of four categories: affordability, economy, quality of life, and community; and was given a full weight, half weight, or one-quarter weight. To avoid geographic clustering, only the top-ranking city in every county was included and only cities with populations over 8,000 were evaluated.

The affordability included factors such as median home value, taxes, and cost of living. The economy category included unemployment rate, five-year employment growth, and the share of total work-age population. In the quality of life category is the poverty rate, mortality rate, and drug overdose mortality rate. The community category included factors such as average travel time to work, the violent crime rate, property crime rate, and the total number of restaurants, bars, museums, parks, and other entertainment per capita.

Based on these factors, the ten worst cities in America are:

Mendota, CA
Florida City, FL
California City, CA
Makaha, HI
Highland Park, MI
Bessemer, AL
Bastrop, LA
Waianae, HI
Anniston, AL
Avenal, CA

In line with WHAT WORKED, I wonder if he will discuss his initial metro-wide plea for us to gather together and send to China all the masks that could be rounded up - Since 'the thing' could not possibly have local impact.

@8:03 was there a category for the average wait time for your garbage to be picked up, or the number of crack heads at intersections, the probability of you getting car jacked while at church, or the number of bullet holes in your roof. If we factor those in Jackson is by far the worst city.

"We knocked on 60K doors to get the word out on the issue of local control of schools". Really!!! Are there 60K houses in Jackson? I never got a knock on my door.

By sheer coincidence, today, I happened on an article about a doctor at UMMC who, during the early days of the pandemic, was actually manufacturing intubation machines, on his own, using parts from other things. And in the same article was mention of ladies crafting cloth masks in their kitchens.

Along comes the current mayor of Jackson, now, to attend a conference to tell of his success in responding to the crisis....and no doubt, glorify his own actions and their relative importance on the international medical stage.

Safe travels...don't forget to submit the travel and meal statement upon your return.

@1:30 heard that on the video too. He says what he wants in those venues far, far away from Jackson and Mississippi because there is no one there to challenge his outright falsehoods and fabrications.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.

Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.

There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug.
